On One UI 7, the highest number of notifications that it'll put in the top notification bar is 3. I used to have it set ti unlimited, but I can't find that option anymore. 
Was it removed? If it was removed, why? Why remove an option, instead of just leaving it there for us? Quit thinking you know how your consumers want to use their phone better than they do, Samsung!

I have had GoodLock since my Galaxy S8+, but I never really used the NotiStar plugin, but after this update I installed it because I thought it might have a fix for it, also. Unfortunately, it does not. Yet. I'm going to message them to see if they'll add a feature to change it back.

You can do it in notification, lock screen notifications.

Choose between Dot, Icon, Cards

No, you actually can't. You must be confused on what we're all talking about.

You absolutely can see the separated messages on the lock screen. In the Notistar settings slide on using on lock screen. Sliding up on the Notistar icon should show you as in the photo

I know you can do that, but that's not at all what my post was about.

I know you want more notification icons, but you also wanted the notifications separated so you could curate which ones you wanted to read.

Again, that was never a part of this discussion lol. I was fully aware notifications could be separated. I'm still annoyed how they're stacked in One UI 7 as opposed to how they were before, but oh well.

Sorry, that wasn't you, it was another contributor to the post. You will just have to wait and see if quickstar is updated to add more icons if the now bar isn't on

On my old phone, this is under Notifications > Advanced settings > Show notification icons. This option is missing on my phone with OneUI 7.
